Vedat Türkali and Third Cinema

Vedat Türkali and Third Cinema Kısa Özet

An odyssey beginning from the source of the Third Cinema, reaching to Turkey, and ending with Vedat Türkali...

This book studies the relationship between Vedat Türkali`s cinematic works and Third Cinema theory. At first, the Third Cinema is researched and evaluated, and criteria for determining the Third Cinema ideology are defined. Traces of the Third Cinema in Turkey`s cinema are then explored, analyzed, and evaluated within the socio-political history of the geography, through a study of Türkali`s life, ideology, and cinema. Six scripts and a novel of Türkali are analyzed using the basic elements of fiction and Algirdas Julien Greimas` "Actantial Model", and evaluated within the framework of the criteria for the Third Cinema.
